Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 740 The Final Trump Card
"No, I'll go out myself! Just take these devourers!"
Hearing Grey Bear's words, Li Chenzhou immediately shook his head:
"It's not time to risk everything yet. At least, I need to find this guy's weakness before I can attack with full force. And once the fighting really starts, the energy shield of the war fortress can't be canceled, and then only I can enter.
"So, only I can go out now. These devourers are expendable anyway, and I can abandon them if I have to. If I take you with me, I can't bring you in. Moreover, in this kind of battle, individual ability doesn't really matter much!"
"Boss! Although I'm not as smart as Xiao Lei, I can guess that you're definitely going to use your skill to enter the body of that devourer queen, right?"
Grey Bear looked at Li Chenzhou and said:
"I know I might not be able to help much, but at least I can help you hold them back. Plus, I have stealth and ranged true damage. If I enter the queen and can see that crystal core, I'm confident I can take that guy down!!!"
"That's right!"
Li Chenzhou didn't refute, but nodded and smiled at Grey Bear:
"That's why I can't let you go this time. I'm scouting the way. I have the fog of war and Fatal Strike. As long as I want to leave, they can't stop me.
"I need to find the location of that crystal core first, see what the situation is around it, and then I can make a plan. When the time comes, you might be the only one who can execute this plan, to blow up that crystal core from a distance! You're the ultimate trump card! Understand?"
"Okay!"
Hearing Li Chenzhou's explanation, Grey Bear finally took a deep breath and patted Li Chenzhou on the shoulder, saying:
"Okay, then I'll wait for you here. You have to come back!"
"Don't worry, Lao Luo said I'm the protagonist, I can't die!"
Li Chenzhou said with a smile, and then teleported to the ground with all the devourers hatched by Xiao Xin!
In addition to the five hundred special devourers with control abilities, hatched using the origin of the universe, Xiao Xin also hatched a large number of other devourers. Moreover, because they were hatched by Xiao Xin, these devourers don't need those special devourers to control them. Li Chenzhou can directly command them.
Before, Li Chenzhou was still worried that if he took these devourers with him, when approaching the queen, these devourers would be controlled by the queen and become his enemies.
Xiao Ya told Li Chenzhou that there was no need to worry about this at all. The devourer queen is not a control type. She controls other devourers because she directly imprinted them with a mark of life during hatching.
The life imprint in the devourers hatched by Xiao Xin is completely different from that of the queen. The queen can't control them, just like Xiao Xin can't directly control the devourers on the queen's side. The two queens are like two operating systems that are completely incompatible.
This put Li Chenzhou at ease. Otherwise, if the devourers he brought turned directly into the queen's, that would be a real pain in the ass.
After arriving on the ground, Li Chenzhou directly arranged the devourers into a formation. All the ones on the outside were special devourers. This way, as soon as they saw hostile devourers, they would control them and add them to their team.
Although the queen was adopting a contraction strategy, because this was near the queen, there were still quite a few devourers on the ground. As soon as Li Chenzhou and his group teleported to the ground, they were surrounded by devourers.
Fortunately, those elite devourers with the origin of the universe in their bodies were quite powerful. The moment they saw the queen's devourers, they activated their control skills. As a result, more than half of the devourers on the opposite side became devourers on this side. Then, they took action one after another, attacking their companions, and quickly brought the situation under control.
Li Chenzhou looked at the surrounding terrain. It seemed to be learning from humans, so the surrounding terrain and buildings were similar to those of humans, with square blocks and towering buildings.
After thinking about it, Li Chenzhou didn't immediately start attacking the mother nest. Instead, he directly ordered the devourers to start dividing into groups. They were divided into five groups, each led by a hundred special devourers, to sweep the surrounding blocks.
The devourers had excellent execution. After receiving the order, they didn't ask why and immediately dispersed, starting to clear the surrounding blocks.
According to Li Chenzhou's orders, they would clear all the nearby blocks separately, and the special devourers would continue to control until they could no longer control other devourers. Then they would bring all the devourers to a position two kilometers away from the queen to wait for orders.
As for Li Chenzhou himself, after all the devourers had left, he quietly approached the queen alone. Just like Grey Bear had guessed, Li Chenzhou wanted to enter the queen and see what the inside of this guy was like.
Although he had already seen the structure inside Xiao Xin's mother nest, and Xiao Xin had said that the internal structure of the queen was basically the same as his, seeing is believing after all.
Xiao Xin himself also said that the queen was likely in the process of evolving. Then, who knows if the internal structure of the evolving queen would change. Moreover, what Li Chenzhou wanted to know most was why this queen wanted to bury its body in the ground.
After walking a distance with the help of the buildings, Li Chenzhou looked at the huge mother nest in front of him, and then looked around, and suddenly walked into a building next to him.
These buildings were naturally all made of the life metal secreted by the queen. However, since Li Chenzhou entered the city, he hadn't seen these buildings change shape.
Li Chenzhou felt that maybe it was because the queen was in the process of evolving, so it didn't have time to control the deformation of these buildings, or it had lost this ability. Otherwise, it wouldn't have had to wait until he blew up the soil under its body before burying its body downward.
Although this ground was not life metal, but the soil of this space, if the queen could control these buildings, it could have used these buildings to cover its body before they arrived.
Although the defense of these life metals was not high, there was a lot of it after all. Moreover, if the queen had the ability to change a city at will, wanting to take down the queen would probably be a pipe dream.
After entering the building, Li Chenzhou tried to break a wall with a beam gun, but the wall didn't recover. Seeing this, Li Chenzhou was confident, so he exchanged a mole drill car and directly drilled into the ground inside the building...
